aura dynamic date display problem
Hi
This is for a trailhead challenge.
The goal is to find today's day (name) and then update a string to say Today is "day".
We have to use aura:if
I can get it to work if I put in a default day, but I want my component to know the actual day. I don't know if there is anything I can do to pull in today() to my attribute.
I've got a javascript function (here) but cannot tether it properly to my component without having an event to activate the function (like button click or input field). This is probably because I don't really know javascript or aura. (Hence trailhead).
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Here's my javascript to get the day in case it's needed.

({ myDay : function (component, event, helper) { var d = new Date(); var wday = new Array(7); wday[0]= "Sunday"; wday[1] = "Monday"; wday[2] = "Tuesday"; wday[3] = "Wednesday"; wday[4] = "Thursday"; wday[5] = "Friday"; wday[6] = "Saturday"; var n = wday[d.getDay()]; } })
